White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki once again was forced to expose Fox News' Peter Doocy who continually asks irrelevant and partisan political questions during the daily press briefing.

On Tuesday Doocy asked four questions, each was swatted away by Psaki, but perhaps her most stunning yet appropriate response was when Doocy asked if the Biden administration wants the Justice Department "to initiate a civil rights investigation into these harassment allegations" against New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.

"We do something new here," Psaki replied, "that feels foreign from the last four years and allow the Justice Department to act independently on investigations."
